This article considers cultural literacy in the context of the contemporary Korean society which is increasingly dominated by digital media South Korea is considered as a world leader in the field of Internet in terms of the flourishing culture as well as the technological development, In such a context, it seers that Korean language education reeds to consider how to teach the diverse meaning making processes of multimodal cultural texts which are widely available on the Internet Considering this, teaching about Internet humor seems to be an interesting pathway to cultural literacy education.

I propose that multiliteracies am cyberliteracy should be two key words to understand the dynamic, multimodal communication on the Internet where everything can be easily coped, replaced and transferred through the techniques of hyperlink. Multiliteracies refers to the ability to understand and design multimodal communication such as textual, verbal, visual, gestural, spacial languages and the interplays of the diverse languages. Cyberliteracy refers to the ability to understand how the language am culture made of hypertext can create different kinds of communication am cultures in the cyber space. Considering these two elements of literacy requires some significant changes in the perspectives am the areas of study in Korean language education.
